Polymarket CEO responds to platform investigation: the current US government's politically motivated last resort
On November 14th, Polymarket CEO Shayne Coplan responded to the investigation of the platform by the Department of Justice: "It is frustrating that the current government will take a last-ditch effort to pursue companies they believe are connected to political opponents.
We are firmly committed to nonpartisan positions, and today is no exception, but the current administration should do some soul-searching and recognize that taking a more pro-business, pro-startup approach could change their fortunes this election.
Polymarket has delivered value to tens of millions of people this election cycle without harming anyone. We are very proud of that. I can hold my head high and say that the future of America, especially the future of American entrepreneurship, has never been brighter. In the face of adversity, we continue to build. "
